Chapter 352 North America Division
What is American aesthetic?
The main character, Jack, has black hair and a conical face, an ordinary person who lacks courage but only money. Supporting character Rafi, a Saiyan with the same blonde hair, wearing glasses as a tech nerd. Supporting Character Maggie, a rebellious girl with brown and black pigtails......
No blacks, bad reviews!
From the character design to the modeling, it is full of compromise and correctness. It is worthy of being a lighthouse country, and even the anime style is so unique.
This is true of human beings, and so is Vajra.
Many people's childhood idols, Cybertron's Right Light, and Optimus Prime, the supreme leader of the Autobots, are actually full of political overtones.
Meng Lang didn't want to blacken Brother Zhuzi, but the fact is that among the many ideas and concepts that Hasbro gave to Brother Zhuzi, there is indeed a shadow of "American-style cooking freedom".
It can only be said that the national situation is so!
Since the culture of China is different from that of the United States, Transformers should also make corresponding changes.
You can't just copy it, can you?
Instilling American-style ideas into domestic children, do you have no brains when Meng Zai? Once this kind of thing is discovered, can Pengda still mix in China?
To do so is to find death!
Not to mention animation, even live-action movies are the same. Who said that Wen Copyist didn't need to use his brain? If he really doesn't use his brain, I'm afraid he doesn't even know how he died.
Pengda's screenwriter is very powerful!
They reshaped the human image and setting in the play, so that it would not be out of line with the national conditions. Optimus Prime's personality thinking has also become more correct.
Maybe the slogan "Liberate Cybertron" will not be much worse?
In addition to these, there is an interesting change. Fuller agents and the Pentagon are a thing of the past.
The current version is ......
Agent Maquis & the Ministry of Defense!
There is no sense of disobedience, what Lao Mei can do, my country can do the same. Fight the Decepticons and maintain peace on Earth, leave it to us!
Transformers is coming to an end, and voice actors are being recruited in an orderly manner.
It is expected to be completed before the Spring Festival!
After leaving Pengda Animation, Meng Lang returned to Pengda Film and Television to receive Kent and his party who came from North America to report work.
Kent is the head of PD North America!
This is a big-nosed foreigner who speaks Sichuan-style Mandarin. I have been in China for a few years before, and I understand the cultural differences between North America and China, and my ability is quite good.
In addition to reporting work, he came to headquarters for another purpose.
"Film and Television Production and Investment?"
This guy has a lot of ideas!
It may be that the leapfrog development of the neon division has made Kent feel a little pressure. He applied for more autonomy from the headquarters to give the North American branch more autonomy to expand the business.
Meng Lang has no objection to this proposal!
Allowing subsidiaries to operate independently is a strategy that has been set in advance for a long time. After all, the better his son's development, the happier Meng Zai is as an old father.
But who will pay for it?
If you want to develop production and investment, how can you do it without money? PD Neon is backed by Kamen Rider and has the capital to do it, but what about PD North America?
Kent came up with a solution!
The operating income of PD North America will no longer be handed over to the headquarters, and all of it will be used for its own development.
Meng Lang disagreed!
"The headquarters also needs a lot of money, and it is definitely not possible to intercept them all. In this way, half of the operating income of the North American branch will be handed over to the headquarters and the other half will develop itself. β
Half is enough!
As the second largest overseas division of PD, the North American division has an annual revenue of at least four or five billion US dollars. After deducting various taxes, and then handing over half to the headquarters, there is a lot of money left.
Save a little money and make a big-budget movie every year.
Kent nodded.
He is not stupid, and fifty-five points are already Mr. Meng's bottom line. If you continue to bargain, it may be that the boss has fired him.
The cost is there, but what about the project?
The North American branch has not been involved in the field of production and investment before, and Kent's plan for this money is only to invest in high-quality projects in Hollywood, and by the way, shoot some American dramas.
It's a bit risky!
A good project in Hollywood doesn't necessarily succeed. The filming of American dramas may not be able to recover the cost.
"That's it......"
Meng Lang pondered: "I transferred some of them from the screenwriting team to the North American branch. By the way, from the trash can in the headquarters, I will find you a suitable practice handicraft. β
Trash can?
That's a joke!
The "trash can" in Meng Lang's mouth refers to the internal storage room of Pengda's draft scrap case. There are many scrap projects here, and there are many screenwriters who have opened their minds.
There are also his sealed memories!
Meng Lang firmly believes in a sentence, a good memory is better than a bad pen. He often thinks of good ideas and writes them down when he feels good. After a long time, the trash can was stuffed with his notes.
This is Pengda's treasure!
Even the legendary "Alien Girl 2" project can be found here! If you look closely, you can even find Alien Girl 34567......
It's a pity that it's all dust!
Considering the particularity of North America, Meng Lang rummaged in the trash can for a long time, and finally returned to the office with two documents.
"O'...... Ultraman?"
Seeing the first document, Kent was so frightened that he almost bit his tongue.
Is Mr. Meng crazy?
Who doesn't know, Ultraman is PD's own son, and his status is so high that even Kamen Rider can't compare.
Can the North American branch shoot Ultraman?
"Ultraman Jonias!"
Meng Lang introduced: "This is a very special Ultraman, he does not belong to the M78 Nebula. In other words, you can play freely, and even if you mess up, it won't affect the Ultraman series. β
Big deal to refrigerate him!
Wild Ultraman anyway!
Kent nodded, roughly understanding what Mr. Meng meant.
And then there's the second profile!
This material is very heavy, not a project for a single work, but a complete plan for a series.
Super Sentai Series!
"This is a project that we take very seriously, and if this series is built well, it will be no worse than Ultraman and Kamen Rider. β
"Make your choice!"
Choose?!
Kent blinked and asked, "Why do you want to choose, I want them all!"
Are you thinking about fart?
Meng Lang snorted: "Do you want it all?Does the North American branch have this strength? It's already very good to let you choose one of the two!"
Kent pouted.
"Okay, Mr. Meng, I'll choose the team!"
"So happy, do you want to stop thinking about it? Jonias is done, and there will be more to come!"
Take Parvat, for example!
"Don't think about it, I think the team is better suited for the North American division, and it's ......"
And more words!
Jonias's project is only a thin piece of paper, and Kent remembers the basic settings at a glance, so he doesn't have to choose them at all.
Super Sentai is, after all, a series, and the planning plan is more detailed. Kent couldn't remember the above and had to choose it.
One of the two?
Mr. Meng is so naΓ―ve!
Kent pondered in his heart that he had almost memorized Jonias's information, and he would find someone to improve it when he went back.
On the surface, he used the super team as a guise to secretly photograph Jonias. In the end, the raw rice was cooked and cooked, and Mr. Meng couldn't do anything about him.
That's right!
How tall is Jonias?
It seems to be ...... 120 meters?
